There is a wide range of add-ons for more comfort. To determine what to add onto your HVAC system you need to know what will put you in comfortable place. Here are the most common add-ons:
Dehumidifier. During humid weather especially here in Texas, the air inside your house can feel hot and stuffy. The dehumidifier can reduce the moisture in the air, giving you a more cool dry feeling.
Ventilator. Without the right exchange of indoor and outdoor air, your home can quickly become stuffy, and you may notice the air becoming stale or smelly. One possible solution is to install a dedicated ventilator to provide the fresh air you need.
Air purifier. Air purifiers filter air to remove any pollutants that the filter in your HVAC system may have missed. Some units can even remove bacteria from the air.
UV lamps. The hidden duct work and drain pan of your home’s HVAC system are the perfect breeding ground for bacteria and biological growth. These organisms can affect indoor air quality and lower your system’s efficiency. Adding germicidal UV lamps that kill bacteria and protect your home from harmful organisms can be a simple install that will save you in the future.
To determine what HVAC unit works best for your home, it’s important to know what type of heating or cooling system you currently have installed. If you already have an existing unit, often times there will be a sticker on the outdoor compressor with information about what size unit it is. What matters the most is what size house you have and what your desired temperature range is that you want to maintain throughout. Knowing how many BTUs are required for your home will allow you to make the best decision what size HVAC system you should purchase.
